Indian and Intl language support
[1/5] from: info:theuxgroup at: 23-Nov-2010 23:12
Hi Friends,
What Indian and Intl languages does a REBOL GUI App can have, and can
we add a new language ourselves?
Thank you,
Sisir

Hi,
not sure what amount of languages is supported by R3, but R3 uses
Unicode system. IIRC, from very special Chinese dialects, it should
support plenty other languages. Not sure the Unicode is correctly
displayed in the GUI yet, but I believe guys are working on it.
R2 does not support Unicode, so I suggest to slowly move to R3, which
will be in beta stage soon.
Best regards,
Petr

Currently, Unicode support is limited to the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP). According
to Wikipedia, these languages are in the BMP:
Brahmi-derived script dead-character formation:
Devanangari Sign Virama (U+094D)
Bengali Sign Virama (U+09CD)
Gurmukhi Sign Virama (U+0A4D)
Gujarati Sign Virama (U+0ACD)
Oriya Sign Virama (U+0B4D)
Tamil Sign Virama (U+0BCD)
Teluga Sign Virama (U+0C4D)
Kannada Sign Virama (U+0CCD)
Malayalam Sign Virama (U+0D4D)
Sinhala Sign Al-Lakuna (U+0DCA)
Thai Character Phinthu (U+0E3A)
Myanmar Sign Virama (U+1039)
Tagalog Sign Virama (U+1714)
Hanunoo Sign Pamudpod (U+1734)
Khmer Sign Coeng (U+17D2)
Balinese Adeg Adeg (U+1B44)
Syloti Nagri Sign Hasanta (U+A806)

Just in case;
Check out RebGUI. Ashley has built in some i18N L10N into his (my
favourite) app building framework.
